Music Video Analysis: Avril Lavigne - 'When You're Gone' (REVISED)

Music Video Analysis: Avril Lavigne - 'When You're Gone'

Video 3 - Conventional

This is a more conventional music video. This is because it focuses on dance moves which go simultaniously in time with the rhythm of the song. Many conventional music videos involve dancers that move to the music. This is also an example of a music video in which there is no visual narrative as such.

Video 2 - Unconventional

This music video is rather different to most music videos, it coulod een be described as weird. Rather than having a narrative to go with the lyrics, the video focuses on movement; this is common for many music videos, but the use of treadmills to do this singles the video out as 'one of a kind'.

Video 1 - Liked

I like this music video because it has a comidic side to it. The characters in the music video help construct this comidic settiong which i thnk helps keep the audience amused. Another thing I like about the video is that it starts off ordinary and rather un-technological, then suddenly the characters surroundings keep changing. This makes the video exciting, and look rather professional.
